Don't feel bad if you wake up feeling suddenly oldMore the realisation that you've let yourself be covered by mouldAge is not something you wrap up if you're feeling the coldIt's a laugh ten times harder at a joke eleven times told

Down to the churchyard, check out the vaultsDig up the coffins, unscrew the boltsNo better reminder, no strong enough saltsTo show this pitiful few that we've missed the last waltz

Don't feel bad if you're feeling past you sell-by dateLike the roller coaster ride slowed down to a serious debateOh the weather you tell them you're ready or whether you waitDoes someone place a hand on your shoulder you point the way to the gate

Down to the churchyard, check out the vaultsDig up the coffins, unscrew the boltsNo better reminder, no strong enough saltsTo show this pitiful few that we've missed the last waltz

You don't count the birthdays 'til your out on your ownThey come thicker and faster and too damn late to postponeAnd wisdom's the last thing the scientists willing to cloneScience advances, maturity dances alone
